I haven't had time to check my machine, but after looking at the schematics for a while I think the "sound enable" line must be stuck on (maybe a bad ls273 at M2).
I'm also making an assumption that there is sound always coming from the pokey and it's just muted at the 4066 at L4.
If someone has a chance, could you check if there is a signal coming from pin 37 of the pokey when the game is in attract mode. (or jump across pins 10 & 11 of L4, which would allow any sound to pass to the amplifier)

Jeff, what about your BZ? Does it work now?
